Summary: Arcanum (and possibly other ddraw 2D games) have very
slow rendering
Product: Wine
Version: 1.1.12
Platform: PC
URL: http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version
&iId=3476
OS/Version: Linux
Status: UNCONFIRMED
Severity: major
Priority: P2
Component: -unknown
AssignedTo: wine-bugs at winehq.org
ReportedBy: Wintershade at gmail.com
On WINE 1.0.1 Arcanum
(http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=3476) runs fine,
even on my hardware (laptop with Mobility Radeon 9700, open-source drivers).
However, with the introduction of the new versions (at the moment I can confirm
this happening with 1.1.9 and 1.1.12) Arcanum runs unplayably slow. I have
tried also to run it after installing the proprietary drivers for my graphics
card, but to no avail.
Since exactly the same thing happens with Sid Meier's Civilization III
(http://appdb.winehq.org/objectManager.php?sClass=version&iId=7905), it's
somewhat a reason to believe it happens on many other DirectDraw 2D
applications/games.
Moreover, changing the default ddraw renderer to opengl instead of default in
regedit only makes things worse, regardless of the application.
However, when a 3D application, like World of Warcraft, is introduced, the
rendering is fine, with no noticeable slowdown (actually works a bit better
than in the stable version, at least for me).
